Thank you for your request made under the Local Government Official Information and Meetings Act 1987 (the Act), received on 26 March 2024. You requested the following information:

* all correspondence, if any relating to requests or inquiries about broadcasting the Call to Prayer from locations within the Wellington region. This should include but not be limited to email, texts and meetings between Wellington City Council staff, Councillors, the Mayor and her staff etc.

I have assessed your request. As it stands it would take considerable time to collate the information. We require that you refine your request (or make it more specific) to reduce the amount of material that would be involved.

Without refining your request, the Council would either consider refusing your request under section 17(f) of the act due to substantial manual collation or research or we may consider charging for the request. Should the Council consider charging for your request, the first half hour is free, then it is $38 (GST included) per half-hour thereafter.

Kind regards, Susan
